We wanted to stay close to Goodwood for the revival festival. We found this great place to stay. A really nice living room with a kitchen area , a shower room and a cosy bedroon. We even had a small courtyard to use exclusively. Highly recommend
This accommodation had everything we needed and more. The cleanliness was beyond excellent.
Couldn’t recommend highly enough.. We would definitely return if we get the chance.
The hosts made us so welcome and all the comforts we needed were there plus lots of little extras.

Clean and modern kitchen. Comfortable bed. Lovely double shower. Cute private patio area. Friendly owner there if you need them. Proper shampoo etc provided not silly little bottles.
Suggested improvements - a hook for outdoor jackets / dressing gown maybe on one of the bedrooom / bathroom doors. Pagham (pebble) beach nice and quiet. Good location on main road but not noisy.
We really enjoyed our stay at this studio annex. There is plenty of off road parking. The property has its own entrance with a small outside seating area.
The property has everything you need with a lovely kitchen, living area and a comfortable bedroom with a beautiful bathroom.
It's very private and has everything needed for a relaxing stay.
The communication with Carole and Tim was excellent and they left us some lovely snacks and a bottle of prosecco in the fridge!
We would thoroughly recommend staying in this comfortable, well appointed studio and we will definitely rebook when we are next in the area.
Carole and Tim have thought of everything you may need for this real home from home stay- the best bit being the super fluffy towels !the welcome back was a lovely surprise and very welcome after our journey . The bed , despite me thinking it was hard at first , proved to be so comfortable that we had the best sleep in ages . The studio is ideally placed for visiting so many different areas - thank you Carole and Tim , we will be back for another relaxing break !
A very well appointed property. Clean and tidy. A nice living room opening out onto a patio. Owners were friendly and the bottle of Prosecco and chocolate biscuits was gratefully received!
Location to town and beach good.
I would recommend it for a nice break
I would
We choose this location because it was close to the Goodwood Festival of Speed. Carol and her family were so friendly and helpful, since it was our first time to the UK. If I ever have the chance to go back we will definitely be staying at this property again.
Very comfortable and clean and spacious (for a single holimaker - not often the case). Good to be close to owners' home thou careful layout of the properties allowed for privacy. I had just moved house, so lots of relaxing time there and gentle walks just a short car ride away, were just as I hoped. RSPB Pagham being so local was a special treat.
My husband and I were travelling along the south coast of England visiting family. We stayed at Old Sefter School for two nights and were absolutely thrilled with everything about our stay. Carole and Tim were incredibly hospitable and ensured that everything was to our liking. We had everything we needed and enjoyed exploring the village and walking the beach. We highly recommend this property and would give it ten stars if it was possible! Thank you Carole and Tim for a wonderful stay!
A beautiful, modern furnished studio flat. Open plan kitchen, and uncluttered quite spacious and very bright sunny lounge area. Separate bedroom with large comfortable bed with fresh white linen. Very nice bathroom with large double shower. French windows on to a very private patio area.
Carole and Tim are perfect hosts. Always ready to help but never intrusive. Some lovely goodies on arrival - their own hens eggs, biscuits, bottle of wine and more. Made me feel very welcome. It was a very peaceful warm and comfy stay despite the dreadful weather! Very short drive to Pagham Beach, Bognor Regis, Chichester, and not far to Portsmouth Dockyard attractions.
Thank you Carole and Tim!
This property is nicely located for all the tourist sites around Bognor and Portsmouth. It's a nicely private and quiet location where it was easy to relax between our excursions.
A bright, modern well equipped apartment. Excellent, friendly support provided by the owners as needed in general conversation. A very convenient location.

Lovely place to stay for a couple nights. Everything you needed - plus a few nice surprises - Prosecco, snacks, milk and eggs from the resident bantam hens.
A great place to stay for 2 adults, very very clean, nice surprise eggs in the fridge, everything you need a small outside patio with table and chairs, very private,
Great location you do have to drive everywhere as the house is on a busy road but only a short drive park up then walk to so many locations.
We would highly recommend staying here.
Lovely property. Compact but with everything needed. I didn't find the sofa very comfy but I'm very picky. Loved the chickens and the wonderful welcome gifts of fresh eggs, prosecco and biscuits. Would definitely return.
Well, where do I start. This property is 5*. Spotlessly clean, very modern and everything you need plus more ... The thoughtful gestures put into it goes a long long way. From Prosecco chilling in the fridge to freshly laid eggs from their own chickens. Carole was a fantastic host, very friendly and meticulous in all she does. Will definitely be staying again. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for a wonderful weekend at your accommodation. 😁
Beautiful accommodation ,lovely and modern perfectly located , everywhere we visited took no more than 15 minutes absolutely wonderful for us compared to our home location
Thank you for a moment of peace in our busy life
This is a clean, compact, tidy, trendy property close to all that Chichester has to offer. It is an ideal base for exploring the natural beauties and beaches of West Sussex and the adjoining counties and the South Downs National Park.
Excellent cafes, pubs and restaurants in its vicinity ensure that if you want to eat out there is choice a plenty.

About the host
Hosted by Carole & Tim Parncutt
Tim & Carole and their daughter Emma live here along with their Springer Spaniel called Sky and a small collection of chickens
Why they chose this property
We moved to Old Sefter School in October 2020 to be closer to the sea where we enjoy walking, swimming & kayaking. It is a lovely friendly location - the beach and nature reserve are a short 5 minute drive away. The house is the old village school and therefore is known to many in the area - it was renovated and extended to include the studio approximately 12 years ago
What makes this property unique
We love the fact that the beach is one of the quietest in the area - it is a beautiful beach and apparently you can see the occasional seal swimming although we have yet to experience this pleasure. The nature reserve also provides lovely walks and is popular for bird watching. Pagham is located close to the South Downs providing access to Chichester, Goodwood Estate, Tinwood Vineyard and the South Downs
